本文通过提出有组织的文化遭遇的概念来介绍这个特殊问题，有组织的文化遭遇是为了管理和/或转化被认为源于或包括文化差异的问题而组织的遭遇。受普拉特接触区概念的启发，对任何相遇的特定历史和空间背景以及这种背景如何框架和调解在相遇中发生的事情的批判性观点被应用。虽然这期的文章呈现了不同种类的有组织的文化接触，但有人认为，它们不仅是同类的，因为我们的分析框架，而且还因为它们有不同的特点。它们是与特定的社会舞台相关联的脚本事件，因此在重要方面受到控制这些舞台的现有规范、话语、角色和等级制度的影响。此外，他们还认为，这种遭遇的变革潜力本身就具有风险，因为它们的潜力与不可预测性联系在一起，而风险不能被忽视，因为它同时也是变革的先决条件。本期的文章说明了脚本和风险是如何以不同的方式出现的。
ABSTRACT The article introduces the special issue by presenting the concept of organised cultural encounters that are encounters organised to manage and/or transform problems perceived to originate in or include cultural differences. Inspired by Pratt’s conceptualisation of the contact zone, a critical perspective on the particular historical and spatial context of any encounter and how this context frames and mediates what takes place during an encounter is applied. While the articles of the issue present different varieties of organised cultural encounters, it is argued that they are not only of the same kind because of our analytical framework, but also because they share various features. They are scripted events tied to the particular social arena with which the encounter is associated and thus shaped in important ways by the existing norms, discourses, roles and hierarchies that govern these arenas. Furthermore, they also share the idea that the transformative potential of the encounter is inherently risky, since their potentiality is tied in with unpredictability, while risk cannot be left out because it at the same time is a precondition for transformation. The articles of the issue illustrate how script and risk come up in a different way.
